Global Entrepreneurship Ambassador
The StartUp TribeGlobal Entrepreneurship Ambassador
Jun. 2018South AfricaI am passionate about the power of entrepreneurship to help make a difference in people's lives and the state of the world. Together with many other phenomenal people I have volunteered to be a champion of startups and small businesses and help where I can, even if only with a kind word, a mention of a local startup or small business in posts or sharing what they are working on in the hope that they get a bit more traction. I am a Global Entrepreneurship Ambassador because I believe that together we can solve the world and want to play my part! I believe in Marshall McLuhan's adage that "There are no passengers on Spaceship Earth. We are all crew!"
